# Hooks
|
|
|
|
If you want to perform some commands before and/or after a backup, you can use hooks.
|
|
|
|
They consist of a list of commands that will be executed in the same directory as the target `from`.
|
|
|
|
The following hooks groups are supported, none are required:
|
|
|
|
- `before`
|
|
- `after`
|
|
- `failure`
|
|
- `success`
|
|
|
|
```yml | .autorestic.yml
|
|
locations:
|
|
my-location:
|
|
from: /data
|
|
to: my-backend
|
|
hooks:
|
|
before:
|
|
- echo "One"
|
|
- echo "Two"
|
|
- echo "Three"
|
|
after:
|
|
- echo "Byte"
|
|
failure:
|
|
- echo "Something went wrong"
|
|
success:
|
|
- echo "Well done!"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Flowchart
|
|
|
|
1. `before` hook
|
|
2. Run backup
|
|
3. `after` hook
|
|
4. - `success` hook if no errors were found
|
|
- `failure` hook if at least one error was encountered
|
|
|
|
If the `before` hook encounters errors the backup and `after` hooks will be skipped and only the `failed` hooks will run.
|
|
|
|
## Environment variables
|
|
|
|
All hooks are exposed to the `AUTORESTIC_LOCATION` environment variable, which contains the location name.
|
|
|
|
The `after` and `success` hooks have access to additional information with the following syntax:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
AUTORESTIC_[TYPE]_[I]
|
|
AUTORESTIC_[TYPE]_[BACKEND_NAME]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Every type of metadata is appended with both the name of the backend associated with and the number in which the backends where executed.
|
|
|
|
### Available Metadata Types
|
|
|
|
- `SNAPSHOT_ID`
|
|
- `PARENT_SNAPSHOT_ID`
|
|
- `FILES_ADDED`
|
|
- `FILES_CHANGED`
|
|
- `FILES_UNMODIFIED`
|
|
- `DIRS_ADDED`
|
|
- `DIRS_CHANGED`
|
|
- `DIRS_UNMODIFIED`
|
|
- `ADDED_SIZE`
|
|
- `PROCESSED_FILES`
|
|
- `PROCESSED_SIZE`
|
|
- `PROCESSED_DURATION`
|
|
|
|
#### Example
|
|
|
|
Assuming you have a location `bar` that backs up to a single backend named `foo` you could expect the following env variables:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
AUTORESTIC_LOCATION=bar
|
|
AUTORESTIC_FILES_ADDED_0=42
|
|
AUTORESTIC_FILES_ADDED_FOO=42
|
|
```
